Subject: [PATCH] fix off-by-one error in split_ident_line
Date: Tue, 22 May 2012 02:12:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120522061220.GA17886@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)

Commit 4b340cf split the logic to parse an ident line out of
pretty.c's format_person_part. But in doing so, it
accidentally introduced an off-by-one error that caused it
to think that single-character names were invalid.

This manifested itself as the "%an" format failing to show
anything at all for a single-character name.
